Jon Stewart Defends Samantha Bee After Ivanka Trump Slur

Bee's language came just days after Roseanne Barr's hit sitcom "Roseanne" was canceled after she made racist comments about former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett.

Bee, who spent more than a decade working as Stewart's Daily Show correspondent, apologized last week for her on-air slur against Ivanka Trump and Full Frontal advertisers State Farm and Autotrader suspended their sponsorship of the weekly show. Bee apologized for the remark Thursday.

"Now, Roseanne will always be my friend but her world came crashing down this week with a series of tweets she put out on Tuesday that were so full of racism, conspiracy theories and personal attacks they were described as abhorrent bordering on presidential", he joked. It was inappropriate and inexcusable.

Trump showed his support for Barr by criticizing Bob Iger, the CEO of ABC's parent company.

Whedon was also not alone in his degrading remarks about Ivanka Trump.

There are no details as to what she will say about the backlash she received for her words, but CNN's source indicates Bee and her writing team have been formulating a response since last week.
